Effects of antioxidant-anti-inflammatory therapy on skin rejuvenation and repair. The clinical case series study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress play a crucial role in both intrinsic and extrinsic skin aging. Antioxidants act as powerful ROS scavengers, mitigating skin aging by neutralizing already-formed ROS and restoring skin oxygen homeostasis, thereby indirectly protecting DNA integrity. Aim: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of a combined therapy involving antioxidants, peels, growth factors, mesopeptide cocktails, and microneedling on selected skin parameters. Material and methods: Twenty Caucasian female participants with skin phototypes II to IV and signs of aging were included. Each participant underwent a three-step treatment regimen consisting of sequential applications of peels, mesopeptide cocktails, and microneedling at 2-week intervals. Between sessions, participants applied a serum containing ferulic acid and adhered to photoprotective measures. Assessments included photographic documentation, videodermoscopic examinations, skin pH assessments, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) measurements, and sebum quantification. Results: A general post-treatment improvement was observed in all participants, with 15 out of 20 individuals reporting lifting effects, wrinkle reduction, and enhanced skin tone. Additionally, reductions in hyperpigmentation, erythema, and skin flaccidity were noted. The mean pH measured on the cheek before treatment was 6.18 ±0.41, after 2 weeks: 5.95 ±0.47, after 4 weeks: 5.63 ±0.34, and after 6 weeks: 5.48 ±0.49. These differences were statistically significant ( Conclusions: The described three-step therapeutic regimen demonstrated excellent tolerability and safety. The observed improvements in nearly all measured skin parameters underscore the efficacy of this comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation.
